William fiddled with his tie as he drove down the freeway. What a horrible time for a funeral. Couldn't his uncle have waited to die until midterms were over? It's not like he had known that guy that well; no one in the family really did. His father's oldest brother had always been a loner. And unlike his loner uncle, he had a life that he needed to get back to.

He cussed a little as he rolled down the window. He hope the funeral was going to be outside, or he was going to burn up in this tux. Only a few more miles until he arrived at the funeral home.
